Solutions architect at the Powerhouse Museum. I write here about the systems I build and run — event-driven platforms, cloud infrastructure, and AI agents in production.

Booting an agent cold on a new project costs ~12,891 tokens of re-explaining context. With myAI's git-versioned brain, the same boot costs ~162 — measured by scripts/brain_token_eval.py, not claimed. Sessions are commits, wrap-up is a merge, and “brain blame” maps a shipped commit back to the memory behind it. An autonomous runner works a task queue on a free tier, backed by 64 specialist agents, 136 skills, and 134 MCP tools.
01 / Writing
Working notes on architecture and delivery, written as things ship.
A high-traffic visitor platform accumulated five cache layers that each kept their own opinion of time. How one monotonic version stamp made them agree — why freshness is a property of a field, not an endpoint — and how to arrive warm at a checkout you don't control.
One question decides how a governed dashboard is licensed, secured and paid for: when the query reaches Power BI, whose name is on it — the person, or the application?
AgentFlow turns an idea typed into a text box into a repository you can actually run — the architecture that gets from prompt to working project.
